  Maj. Gen. Gregg Martin cut a striking figure in the Army: athletic, quick witted, devout, and studious, he was a natural leader. Thanks to his engineering and leadership knowhow, Martin was chosen to lead the thousands of combat engineers who paved the way for 100,000 Army troops to battle their way to Baghdad in 2003. Only years later would he learn how the pressure of organizing dozens of simultaneous life-or-death missions each day altered the biochemistry of his brain. The Iraq War triggered what military and Veterans Administration psychiatrists ultimately diagnosed as late-onset bipolar disorder, a chemical imbalance that sends sufferers whipsawing between grandiose imaginings and suicidal depressions. His increasing erratic behavior led to his forced resignation as president of the National Defense University and ended his military career. 
   
   
    
  Bipolar General offers a candid account of Martin's personal journey with undiagnosed mental illness as he rose through the ranks of the United States Army. He discusses why his condition went undiagnosed for so long and explores what can be done both within and outside the armed forces to diagnose and treat mental illness. Bipolar General should be of value to those with mental illness and to the communities of family, friends, and caregivers surrounding them.

  After guiding the nation through five tumultuous years of World War II, Winston Churchill faced weariness and uncertainty about Britain's post-war future. What were his thoughts? The seasoned leader harbored concerns that the British Empire, exhausted and financially strained from prolonged conflict, might be overshadowed by its more potent American and Russian allies as the war neared its conclusion. Churchill had devoted his all to King and country, and while an Allied victory promised to be his crowning achievement, he remained prudent. Astonishingly, his continued tenure as the nation's Prime Minister was far from guaranteed. 
   
  Discover: 
  - Churchill's apprehensions regarding Stalin and post-war Russia's influence 
  - The significance of the Okinawa battle in the European war's outcome 
  - Global awareness of multiple concentration camp atrocities 
  - The transition following FDR's funeral and Harry S. Truman's international emergence
